Hey everyone - just wondering in particular if anyone in the Ottawa area is having this same issue
I have 2 Sobeys nearby - Stittsville and Kanata. Neither seem to be participating in Mega Miles. The Stittsville one has the pharmacy and they would not accept the coupon I printed out for the $10 buy (I rehashed this in an earlier post). Last Friday I asked the customer service/checkout that was open if they had the books and they literally had no idea what I was talking about. Slow to start I accepted. Well I went back there tonight because I'm sick and wanted cough syrup - figured I would use the pharm coupon.....no go - won't accept printout. They literally don't know what it is and suggested I'm likely confusing it with a promotion at the Superstore! I asked them about the gift card promo this weekend...same thing literally no idea what I was talking about. Funny thing is that the flyer this week had a big banner for mega miles.
Are other Sobeys in Ottawa participating? Sobeys does have corp vs franchise stores (I actually used to work for Sobeys head office so I know a thing about their operations) so I'm wondering if perhaps franchise stores are not participating?
Weird... I've never had an AM sponsor not take a coupon in the past year or so I have been collecting. I would ask to speak to a manager. As if they wouldn't just try scanning the coupon and seeing what happens!
Now... the $150 GC 150AM coupon is only valid this coming Fri-Sun so I could see them telling you a coupon isnt valid. But otherwise that's so odd / rude!
